Description

Abort caused by allocating a vector that is too large in Tensorflow

Impact

During shape inference, TensorFlow can allocate a large vector based on a value from a tensor controlled by the user:

  const auto num_dims = Value(shape_dim);
  std::vector<DimensionHandle> dims;
  dims.reserve(num_dims);

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit 1361fb7e29449629e1df94d44e0427ebec8c83c7.

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
